Apple has just dropped the new MacBook Air M5 along with the MacBook Pro M5 Pro and M5 Max, and on paper the numbers are impressive. For creative professionals needing a high performing workstation – video editors, motion designers, 3D artists, photographers, sound producers and the like – the performance gains are real and meaningful (we expect the Pro to go straight to the top of the best laptop for 3D modelling).
But there's a nagging question knawing at my brain. Is this the thing to buy right now, or is it a bridge to something even better just around the corner?
